@petergleick you're telling me these companies are raising these prices above what they need to cover the increased costs due to the war and the strait being closed? who would do that? charge more just because they can?

@petergleick My current mood is strongly marked by the total absence of any and all flabbergastedness.

@petergleick Let's be fair, in the final results the winner of Iran war is [or will be] Iran.

No American on either side of the political aisle will ever be able to deal with that, so for the Left oil companies and their American investors won; for the Right America [somehow] won because the orange baboon says so.
